Hi Minh,
Thanks for the information.  Were you the only one that took the 
modified version of the exams, or did anyone else also take it? 
It seems like they make a separate version specifically for 
Braille students.

Vejas,

I didn't take AP Euro specifically, but I took six other AP exams 
and
all of them were structured the same.  All of the exams that I 
took
were different from my friends, but the exam was created for the 
year
that it was administered.  I don't think you should worry about 
scoring
discrepancies because even though my tests were different, I did
extremely well, better than most of my classmates actually.  I 
remember
my teachers telling me that college board creates several exams 
and
distribute them randomly in order to cut down on cheating and 
stuff
like that.  I'm not one hundred percent sure if this is correct 
though.
Hope this helps.

Cheers,
Minh

 Hi all,
 I would like to know about your experiences with AP testing,
 specifically about AP European history.  When you took the test,
 did you receive the same version as all of your sighted peers, 
or
 did you get a different test from a different year? If you
 received a different version, how were you scored compared to
 everyone else? If there were any problems with scoring, how did
 you address them?

 Thanks,
 Vejas
